It's long past time for folks to get angry. It's time to get busy. I'm taking a concealed weapons class in January and should have my permit by April. I WILL NOT go down without a fight. The criminals own my neighborhood (Downtown) right now. It's time for this to end. The Police department are in denial and want to solve this by playing semantic games. You CANNOT trust them to defend you, nor to take your fear seriously.

Fellow Downtowners - please arm yourselves and take weapons classes. Learn some basic self-defense techniques. Most important - MOST IMPORTANT - Look out for each other. Have each others back. Don't let your friends walk around alone.
